In January 2012 we kicked off our mock draft racker when we looked at "Ten Options For The Cowboys' 14th Pick." A year later, we looked at "Ten Options For The Cowboys' 18th Pick." In January 2014 we weren't yet sure which pick the Cowboys would have, so the post was called "Ten Options For The Cowboys' First-Round Pick."
And here we are again. It's January, and we're already looking at mock drafts - even if it's a lot later in January than it was in the previous three years.
But before take a look at which players the pundits have mocked our way this year, let's look back at the predictions made in early January of the previous three years. The following table shows who the 10 candidates were in each of those years, sorted in descending order by where they actually ended up being picked in the draft.
